Cinema Today’s official Youtube channel has released a new trailer for Go Nagai’s Mazinger Z: Infinity film. Alongside the new trailer was a preview of the movie’s ending theme: “The Last Letter” by Kouji Kikkawa, who also played Kamen Rider Skull in Kamen Rider W.

The plot of the film is described below:

Humanity was once in danger of its downfall at the hands of the Underground Empire, which was led by the evil scientist Dr. Hell. Koji Kabuto piloted the super robot Mazinger Z, and with help from his friends at the Photon Power Laboratory, he thwarted Dr. Hell’s evil ambitions and returned peace to the world.
It’s been ten years since then… No longer a pilot, Koji Kabuto has taken after his father and grandfather by starting down the path of the scientist. He encounters a gigantic structure buried deep beneath Mt. Fuji, along with a mysterious indication of life…
New encounters, new threats, and a new fate await mankind. The former hero Koji Kabuto has a decision to make about the future: whether to be a god or a devil…
